Honestly, one of the hardest, most realistic dystopias I've ever read - wayyy too close to reality, for too many people, this is already a reality. I will never understand how people can be persecuted because of their skin colour or their place of origin. Everyone who talks about "illegals" or "the migration question" should read this book. I haven't cried this much in a long time.
